Salvation By Committee
by Rev. Kelly Weisman Asprooth-Jackson
In the wider world, and sometimes even in our own religious movement, the committee has a bum rap. But the practice of our faith has an insight that over-turns this: our working and deciding together is our greatest source of strength, hope, and spiritual sustenance. Please join us for a service to celebrate the life-giving power of being together religiously.
Rev. Kelly Weisman Asprooth-Jackson has been the minister of the First Parish Church in Beverly, Massachusetts since 2010. He holds a B.A. from Bard College and a Master of Divinity degree from Starr King School for the Ministry. Before coming to First Parish, he served as a hospital chaplain and as a part-time parish minister in Western New York State.
